In today's world I believe the only way you get away from police doing the traffic enforcement, is if you let a private company do it, with whatever means they feel like (AI cameras, mercenary "officers", etc. ) And you can bet it'll be 100% profit driven.
That’s because in our society we cede all authority to either privately owned or state organizations, so that’s all we can imagine. I’d prefer public safety to be more community-led. We don’t have a lot of existing models for this yet but that doesn’t mean it’s not possible.
Yes. Police. Where the hell do you think cops live?
Or did you mean vigilantes who got bored of being HoA Karens?
I’m saying public safety activities should be executed by and accountable to the communities they operate in. Current police organizations only make token gestures towards this ideal.
HOAs are kind of their own weird monstrosity but they aren’t structured in a healthy way due to being tied to home ownership and their primary purpose being the protection of home prices.
